review | litecup sippy cup + nightlight

When I was asked to review litecups, I'd only heard about them on facebook, never actually seen them, so I was interested to see what they meant by a 360° spout, and how a light would work in a cup.

The cup is a lovely big size, easy for Sophie to hold in both hands. The 360° spout means she can play with it, then get a drink without trying to figure out where the spout is. The cup holds a generous amount of liquid (non-fizzy, cold drinks are recommended) The lid comes apart for easy cleaning, and pops back together again so easily that I pulled it apart again to make sure I'd done it right.

When I told Steve about the cups, he was most concerned about the button battery that operates the light, so I pulled it all apart for him to check out. As you can see from the photos, it was quite an effort to get into! He has no concerns now!

The light is hardly visible in normal daylight (I flattened a battery by leaving it switched on) and provides a nice soft glow, making the cup easy to find in the dark. [Sophie was very unhappy about being outside in the almost-dark, so I didn't play around with camera settings]

I'm going to add these cups to our camping kit, they will make drinks so much fun!

This is such a cool concept. I was going to get one before we went overseas recently as it was a good nightlight substitute but there wasn't enough time by the time I discovered them online. It might be just enough novelty to get my daughter to start drinking milk out of a cup and let go of her attachment to nursing ;)

I have these with my 2 kids and I cannot rate these high enough! My kids love to take drinks to bed with them and I was so sick of the sippy cups leaking at night. I've never had a leak with these litecups and my kids love the light
